1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Estrogen receptors (ERs) [ERalpha (Esr1) and ERbeta (Esr2)] are expressed in the human colon, but during the multistep process of colorectal carcinogenesis, expression of both ERalpha and ERbeta is lost, suggesting that loss of ER function might promote colorectal carcinogenesis. Through crosses between an ERalpha knockout and Apc(Min) mouse strains, we demonstrate that ERalpha deficiency is associated with a significant increase in intestinal tumor multiplicity, size and burden in Apc(Min/+) mice. Within the normal intestinal epithelium of Apc(Min/+) mice, ERalpha deficiency is associated with an accumulation of nuclear beta-catenin, an indicator of activation of the Wnt-beta-catenin-signaling pathway, which is known to play a critical role in intestinal cancers. Consistent with the hypothesis that ERalpha deficiency is associated with activation of Wnt-beta-catenin signaling, ERalpha deficiency in the intestinal epithelium of Apc(Min/+) mice also correlated with increased expression of Wnt-beta-catenin target genes. Through crosses between an ERbeta knockout and Apc(Min) mouse strains, we observed some evidence that ERbeta deficiency is associated with an increased incidence of colon tumors in Apc(Min/+) mice. This effect of ERbeta deficiency does not involve modulation of Wnt-beta-catenin signaling. Our studies suggest that ERalpha and ERbeta signaling modulate colorectal carcinogenesis, and ERalpha does so, at least in part, by regulating the activity of the Wnt-beta-catenin pathway.
